Answer:

Cylinder. The explanation is not very exact, more intuition and whatnot, so let me know if there was anything you did not understand.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is assuming the rectangle has its sides parallel with the x and y axes.

Let's try to eliminate them one by one. A cone does not seem likely since it has slanted sides, and spinning the two straight sides will keep the sides straight. This can be used for the pyramid as well. Let me know if this doesn't make sense though.

Now for me I would imagine that rectangle being a sheet of paper, or metal. if you set that sheet atop some dirt or something and then rotated it, what shape would be drawn into the material? It would be a circle. So we know the 3d shapewill have a base of a circle, which leaves us with a cylinder. Again, let me know if this method did not make sense.

If you could explain how I would get this answer also that'd be great

For now, we can’t get a definite answer. We can model with an equation, but we cannot find the absolute amount Jocelyn will earn, as her hourly rates are both variables. All we must do to create an equation for this is multiply the amount of hours by the rate and add. You could model like this:
25n + 15x = total amount earned

H(x)=17, x=?<br> H(x)=5x+2<br> I don't know how to find x?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

• If h(x) is 17, equate the whole function to 17

${ \tt{5x + 2 = 17}} \\ \\ { \tt{5x = 17 - 2}} \\ \\ { \tt{5x = 15}} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \tt{x = 3}}}$

Part a:

Considering the input of h

i.) A valid unit of measure for the input quantity is Seconds

ii.) The possible input values, i.e. the domain of h are -1 ≤ x ≤ 1

Part B:

i.) A valid unit of measure for the output quantity is the Radians.
